Tesla opens Experience Center in Bengaluru

Tesla has inaugurated its fourth ‘Experience Center’ in India, in Bengaluru. The center, or the showroom, if you prefer a traditional term, is located in the premises of the VR Bengaluru Mall on the ITPL Main Road. Tesla is currently offering the Model Y and the Model Y L (long-wheelbase) in India, with prices starting at INR 61.99 lakh, ex-showroom. The center is open every day from 11 AM to 8 PM.

The high sticker price is due to CBU import. The models are being imported from China.

Also sold in China, the Model Y L comes with a 6-seater configuration. It boasts a 16-inch laptop-sized screen at the front, an 8-inch touchscreen for the second row, power-adjustable armrests, and an 18-speaker audio system.

Both Model Y and Model Y L have received the highest safety ratings from multiple safety organizations, including NHTSA and IIHS (America), Euro NCAP (Europe), ANCAP (Australia and New Zealand) and C-IASI (China).

For some strange reason, Tesla doesn’t mention full technical specifications on its website, but it’s not a secret. The Model Y L comes with a dual-motor AWD configuration, offering estimated combined figures of 378 kW (514 metric hp) and 590 Nm (435 lb-ft). Battery pack capacity is also officially not disclosed, but it is reported to be ~88 kWh. Officially claimed range is 681 km (423 mi) as per WLTP.
